Re: happy hatch day to me!
Awww how sweet! Congrats Em! Here's hoping for a high female to male ratio.
Re: happy hatch day to me!
all the snakies have hatched! the last three were out when i got home from work tonight and now all are set up in their homes. :) i have to say, that is the fastest i've ever filled a rack and boy did it feel nice! :P
now, i hesistate to even say this, but i have popped each and every one of the poor little hatchlings about 15 times and i can only pop a hemipenis out of ONE of them... now granted, i am not a practiced popper and this is my first year breeding bps so maybe i'm just not getting it right. but the one male pops right out for me and the others...nothing. so IF, and i do mean IF, i am right, that means i got 1.7 50% het pieds from this clutch!
and now i must go offer sacrifices to the ball python gods and shake my rain stick to a please-tell-me-i-got-the-sexes-right chant. :D
Re: happy hatch day to me!
1.7....great odds...not to mention you got an oddball female in the clutch ;)..Do you plan on keeping them all? :D
Congrats Emily! :handshake
Re: happy hatch day to me!
That's AWEsome Emily!! Super-congrats on hitting such odds (I'm sure you're right!!) and most especially on such a successful first clutch! That's so wonderful! :hug:
Re: happy hatch day to me!
Wow Emily I hope your right on the ratio's 1.7 that just amazing odd's. How about some lower belly pic's?
Re: happy hatch day to me!
hmm, will i keep them all? i'd like to keep all the females! :D i had said i was only going to keep 3 or 4 females if i was so lucky as to get that many...but now i'm thinking, how do i choose which ones to keep?! if i just keep them all i will have a much better chance at proving one out! :P
oh and about that oddball spot nosed one, i actually got a second one with the spot nose too, plus a spot right in the middle of her nose! i'll have to get a photo of it.
and yes, some belly shots are in the works. after the round of popping that i just put the poor babies through they are taking a little break at the moment. :)
Re: happy hatch day to me!
Awwww - I can't wait to see all eight of the sweet babies! Congratulations Emily!!!!
Re: happy hatch day to me!
No pic's yet Emily!!! How are those babie's doing?
Re: happy hatch day to me!
they are doing great! i know--i'm a little slow on the pics. my husband and i are packing this weekend so we can move soon--either next weekend or the next--so i don't know when i'm going to have some spare time! i promise i'll get some photos eventually though! :)
Re: happy hatch day to me!
aawwwww yay for babies!! the spot nose one is sweet! looking forward to pics of the whole family!!
Congrats!
